Curiosities

in #steemit7 years ago



                 This wondrous waterfall in the Philippines wasn’t discovered until 2010. The residents of the nearby village of Sitio Dulao had only come across the site  after a series of floods and forest fires destroyed a significant chunk of the forest that was hiding it. 

The newfound oasis was christened Asik-Asik, meaning “sprinkle-sprinkle” in the local Hiligaynon language, after the sprinkle of falling water on nearby rocks. Lush vegetation covers the entirety of the ravine, and adds mystery as to where the water is coming from. The most likely sources are thought to be springs deep within the mountain or an underground river.
